The make up will take place on Aug. 26
BOSTON — The series finale between the Red Sox and Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday night was suspended when Mother Nature decided to wreak havoc on Fenway Park.
The scheduled game between Boston and Toronto was in the top of the second inning when the grounds crew was forced to break out the tarps and cover the field as the rain began to fall on the famous ballpark.
The Red Sox announced the decision approximately one hour and 48 minutes after the delay was implemented at 7:31 p.m. ET.
Tonight’s #RedSox-Blue Jays game has been suspended due to an extended period of severe weather in the Fenway area.
